Dear fellow collectors I would like to ask Your oponion on this PAB badge. This one I have bought last Year here on bazar forum from one of our friends. I had no doubts about it till last week. I have sold it to someone and this collector acused me that I sell fakes. I have no reference to solve it so please help me wit this little problem.

The buyer based on the opinion from 2013. This opinion was not exactly about this badge but as he says similar. A little bit weierd but I'm a honest person and I always refound - doesn't matter what the problem is. Now I want to be sure if this badge above is good or bad.

Below opinion he based to send the badge back. I do not know the badge this opinion was about to be honest.

I do not study PAB's so will just post some quick findings.
PAB's with BSW marks have been noted and discussed. Not many but a few. Based on F&R and S&L types. BSW was discussed as a distributor of the other co. badges. Possibly having purchased from them to fill an order?
The BSW mark on your badge does not look like what I noted on other accepted BSW marked badges.

Hope this helps with your research.

good work Joe.. Myself,,I don't like how the eagles claws look. and yes there are a few blobs that are just too big...

Isn't sad that the old days are over. The 1970s when a fake was easy to spot. When we could collect whatever we wanted,,PABs, IABs, GABs, medals and not need a ******** microscope!

Gottleib,, You've always been a honest and fair dude with dealings with me. I applaud you in your search to find out about the piece instead of just relisting and sell again..
